Shortcuts to Internet Millions Infomercial: A Must See

Infomercial girlsSome choice quotes:

“Do you really know how your email magically appears on your computer screen?” She then added a few more “magical” references.

“If you can type on your keyboard and click your mouse you can do this.”

So stupid but a must see. I keep seeing this on television, and I finally wrote down the name of the product so I could find the video on Youtube. So check it out. The girl on the left, “Kelly,” is apparently a booth babe and the other girl is a model. Kelly was also a member of the Lingerie Football League. Why had I never heard of such a sport before? Not sure if they really used the product to make thousands of dollars. Hah.

Starburst Commercial: Berries and Cream

This is one of the weirdest commercials I have ever seen. It’s the guy’s voice that makes it so creepy. But I have now come across it online and you must watch it. Isn’t the “lad” creepy?

Dove Evolution Commercial

I just came across this great Dove commercial that had been mentioned by some people when I was at the Future of Online Advertising Conference. It was part of a viral campaign where you see how a model is made up and then air-brushed in time-lapsed photography. It was shown as an example of a successful campaign, and it was geared at inspiring girls and lifting self-esteem through the Campaign For Real Beauty.

Toyota Tacoma World of Warcraft Commercial

Today I have a new commercial for you. This one comes from Toyota and puts the Tacoma in the game World of Warcraft (WoW). Check it out. Who says there aren’t trucks in World of Warcraft? “Did you see me lay down the law? I am the law-giver!”

The last bit makes it clear it is a Toyota commercial, if you couldn’t tell. Very cool use of advertising.

Geico Caveman Commercial: Airport Complaint

This is a followup to the Geico caveman airport commercial. In it the caveman is on the phone with someone about the offending ad. It appears that it was supposed to be taken down but is still there.

Geico Caveman Commercial: Therapy Session

Here’s another Geico commercial. This time the caveman goes to a therapist.

Jan 26 Update: Identity of Caveman - According to this comment the caveman in this commercial is played by performer John Lehr. His website has this page that seems to confirm that he did act in at least 2 videos. You can see John in his new show on TBS called “10 Items or Less.”

Geico Caveman Commercial: Airport

Sometimes I come across a great commercial on television, and this is one of my recent favorites. The caveman is a great, expressive character who is always upset with the world’s view of his intelligence. And the music in this commercial really makes it. Checking Yahoo Answers I find that the song is “Remind Me” by Royksopp. Get the album Melody A.M. from Amazon, or buy the single song from Amazon MP3 Downloads
